Chapter 148: Bloodbath and Rebirth
What Zhang Yong said reminded everyone.
Liu He walked out quickly. When the Anmin Army soldiers sitting cross-legged on the ground saw him coming out, they immediately stood up together.
Liu He waved his hand and signaled them to sit down again.
He paced back and forth among the soldiers without saying anything, which made everyone confused.
Walking to a soldier bandaged on his right rib, Liu He squatted down.
"It's Hu Yi, are you injured? How is your injury? Didn't you say that the injured person will go back to rest and don't need to gather? Why are you here?"
Hu Yi is only nineteen years old this year. He joined the village warriors at that time when he was seventeen, so Liu He is familiar with him.
Hu Yi gritted his teeth and looked determined.
"A little injury is nothing at all. No one knows when those people will come back. If they are seriously injured, they should rest. I can continue fighting!"
Liu He looked straight into his eyes and asked, "Are you afraid? They are so fierce and completely ignore life and death. In this battle, so many of our brothers were killed in battle. As far as I know, Zeng An, who grew up with you, died under their swords, aren't you afraid of death?"
When Hu Yi mentioned this, his eyes suddenly became congested and his hands clenched into fists.
"Not afraid! Brother Zeng died to block the knife for me. Before he died, he only said one thing, that is, I would avenge him, continue to kill the enemy for him, defend our hometown, and protect our family and fellow villagers! I, Hu Yi, suffered from poverty since I was a child. My father suffered a disaster when I was six years old. In order to leave the only food for me and my mother, he starved to death. He hoped that I could have a future and be a man!"
"No matter whether it is to protect my mother, or for my father and Brother Zeng's last wishes, I cannot be afraid! So what if the enemy is fierce, I am even more fierce than them! This wound was left by me when I avenge Brother Zeng and dealing with the enemy soldier he killed. If he wants to stab me, I will pounce on him and let him stab him. Even if I bite him, I will bite him to death!"
He became more and more excited, and his voice became louder and louder. The school ground was empty, and his voice soon spread throughout the school ground and into everyone's ears.
There were more than 2,000 civilian troops around, some lowered their heads to ponder, some showed shame on their faces, while most, like Hu Yi, held their hands tightly and looked excited.
Liu He looked at everyone's reactions, then patted Hu Yi on the shoulder.
"Good example, I am worthy of being my brother Liu He! Ling Zun and Zeng An Zai Tian Youling will definitely be proud of you!"
Hu Yi nodded solemnly!
Liu He looked around and shouted loudly: "Although we have defended the city in this battle, we have lost many brothers. It is my fault for Liu He! I apologize to everyone!"
After saying that, Liu He couldn't bow, and the soldiers around him rushed forward to help him up, but Liu He shouted back.
"County magistrate..."
Everyone was moved.
After a long time, Liu He stood up again.
"It won't be long before, maybe it's tonight, maybe tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, the enemy will definitely come to attack the city again. At that time, the bloody battle will be more fierce, and I'm afraid that today will be even worse. Judging from our performance today, there will be more brothers' casualties at that time."
"As the magistrate of Langdian County, Liu He should live and die with the county town, but you don't have to do so. Everyone has their own relatives and family. If you want to escape from the city with your family, it is still time. I will prepare the dry food for you. When night is coming tonight, you can leave from the west gate."
As soon as these words were said, not to mention the soldiers, even Guan Yu and the others were very surprised.
"Brother, this..."
Cheng Liang was about to ask a question, but Cui Jun stopped him. He shook his head at Cheng Liang, and then Cheng Liang swallowed his words.
No one stood up in the schoolyard.
At this time, a figure suddenly stood up and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Mr. Liu, don't underestimate us!"
Liu He looked at him with great interest and asked him to continue talking.
"Everyone is born and raised by his parents, so the Taiping Army is not necessarily two more arms than us, and the weapons and armor are far inferior to us. In addition, I also defend and attack him. Why do we want us to avoid them? How can the world avoid the weak by using the strong?"
"If we leave, we can keep peace for a while, but the city falls and all the villagers and comrades are slaughtered. How can we survive in the future?"
"It is for disloyalty to avoid war with food and wages! It is for disloyalty to abandon comrades and survive with unrighteousness! It is for unwise to fear weak enemies with strong strength! It is for such unfaithful, unrighteous and unwise behavior that is not done by a husband!"
This man was a man nearly nine feet tall. He said this firmly. While saying the last word "Ye", he stammered the long halberd in his hand to the ground. He heard the sound of "天" for a lifetime, and the end of the long halberd poked into the ground for several inches.
The people who were still hesitant just now became excited.
Seeing the atmosphere like this, Cui Jun quickly poked Guan Yu next to him with his elbow, winked at him, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Second General, the firewood has been lit, you have to make the fire more."
Guan Yu then realized it. He looked at the strong man and nodded frequently.
"This person is good. I don't know which brother he is under? Second brother, I want it!"
Cheng Liang immediately started yelling: "Second brother, this is not possible! This guy is my soldier. This time he cut down fifteen enemy troops on the top of the city. I was about to report to my elder brother and promote him to the commander of the sergeant. You can't dig up your little brother's corner, otherwise don't blame your brother for turning against you!"
"Hey, my third brother said that, so I had to give up. It's a pity that Guan didn't have such a warrior under his tent."
"Yes, yes, I, Zhang Yong, lack such brave generals."
"Hey, I, Zhu Ye, can't rub the sand in my eyes. I don't have such blood in the future. Let alone the soldiers led by me, Zhu Ye, when I go out, I, the eldest son of Zhu, will be the unparalleled general in the world in the future and cannot afford to lose this person!"
Most of these people are villagers who volunteer to join the village brawl team, or small bandits who take the initiative to abandon evil and do good. They are already bloody, but they were shocked when they saw such a cruel scene in the first day of the first year of the New Year.
But what Liu He said before on the city wall was already quite reasonable. It is better to advance than to retreat. If you advance, you will have vitality, and if you retreat, you will die. In addition, two comrades in the army have expressed their opinions, and everyone's men's blood has been ignited again.
Guan Yu and others' aggressive methods finally successfully turned the fire into a raging divine fire!
"I am a soldier under General Guan. I also want to be a warrior and never be a coward!"
"I am a soldier under General Cheng. Although I am short, I am not inferior to this big man!"
"I am a soldier under General Zhang, so I will never show weakness!"
"General Zhu, I will follow you in my life. I will always be your soldier. If you want to get rid of me, there is no door!"
"The same is true for our soldiers under General Ye!"
"An Minjun is fearless!"
"An Minjun is fearless!"
On the school ground, various shouts were heard one after another, and everyone shouted at the top of their throats, their eyes bulging and blue veins bulging.
"Okay! I, Liu He, represent myself and the whole county's fellow villagers, thank you everyone! I promise that everyone will be rewarded after this battle!"
Liu He walked to the front of the entire army and bowed to the end again!
Guan Yu and others were so excited that their faces were flushed and their eyes were filled with tears.
An Minjun’s door to rebirth with blood is opened!
Chapter completed!
